GreatSchools Rating
The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Northern Vance High School did not prepare me for the endeavors that I will be embarking on in the future and it has not paved a way for me to be the type of student I would love to be. My time at Northern Vance High School was spent with stress, tears, and long nights.

Northern Vance HS was a wonderful High School to attend. I enjoyed the sports, clubs and activities that were involved with the school. I wish to see the structure of the facility change due to a fairness of something new to the students there. Overall, a great facility.

I would like to see more discipline. Northern Vance does not prepare students for college. Many resources were not available (technology and textbooks).
